The Washington Posts special under date
Of the 25th says there are SINE indications
that o proclamation of non-intercourse with
Canada, on the basis of the Edmunds bill, is
regarded as possible. while Salisbury's latest
proposition to extend the provisions of the
Washington treaty, without the indemnity
clause, is considered at Gloucester as an i'm
pudent one, because of its carrying with it the
free fish clause, which was not included in
Secretary Bayard's temporary arrangement.
1t is denounced in Toronto as an unworthy
surrender of Canadian interests. The con-
clusion 10 therefore believed to be inevitable
that non intercourse will first have to be pro-
claimed, to be followed, asi is anticipated, by
the joint commission to adjust the m1tters in
dispute, which was the course originally re-
commended.
Tho Toronto Globe, referring to Sails
bury's proposition for the settlement of the
fishery question says: ut consists of giving
everything to the United States and in dis
gracing and d shonoring the people of this
country as they could never be d.sgraced and
dishonorcd by manfully defending thcirrig;,ts,
even to the point of war: The offer of the
Tory Premier is cowardly, despicab:e and
treachereus to Canada, and should it be rati-
fed by the Dominion Parliament, it will mover
again be possible to assert the right to exclude
American fishermen from our inshore waters I"
